I do this, except without the foolery. I schedule recurring blocks on my calendar like "Focus time" and "Personal time" so people know that scheduling meetings with me during those blocks may not result in my attendance.
- tyre 11mo agoI tried generic ones but they were schedule over :(
- magneticnorth 11mo agoYMMV whether this will fly in your company culture, but I titled mine "Focus time, please ask before scheduling". And when people inevitably didn't ask, I'd just decline unless I especially wanted to attend. I find myself getting invited to meetings sometimes just because the organizer wants to be inclusive and make sure everyone is looped in who might want to be, and I figure that's what's going on if they added me without asking. If it's really important for me to be there, they'll see my time block and ask me.

- minkzilla 11mo agoTo make them stick you have to decline meetings scheduled during that time
